Sheep vs Forumers, but slightly less one-sided

So there's two teams - the sheep and the forumers. I win by getting 200 NP, the forumers win by getting a combined total of 750 NP. The twist is simple - you can't attack me, but I can attack you. So while you try and mine, I will slowly be overtaking your territory, and if you're not fast enough I will grow too big and take all your mines. The one rule is when we're all taking dormant outposts at the start I can only take the ones closest to me. Anyone who thinks this is unfair can suggest changes.

So then, Team Forumers had better get recruiting! :p So far they have recruited:


Thanks, Sheep

If each forumer mines on day one, we will reach 100 total in 1.2 days sheep. Sorry but this idea is just horrible.

160 drillers to start gives 2 mines, probably both set within 18 hours (high estimate). 9 players, 10 outposts each, that's 90 outposts on 2 mines each gives 180 per day. The game will be over in just over a day, unless you take territory quickly. Let's say you can manage to snag up 2 mines quickly, that'll give the timer a bit of a break, but there's still no plausible way you could win unless the forumers are complete idiots that mess up in every possible way. And quite honestly, I don't think that's gonna happen

Hello goat. I assume that means you're playing - am I correct in thinking you're blob?
